So I've shot a few shorts, dancing, music vids, interviews, done some editing etc... and even been on a couple of pro shoots. Now is the time to drive this forward and take my first shot at a serious, money-making product. I want to self-fund this.
My target market is definable, contactable, passionate about the subject matter and numerous enough that I believe this could be financially lucrative. When we ran an analysis through Facebook, we discovered an international market of passionate enthusiasts with Facebook pages, websites, associations and clubs.
I don't believe television would be interested but a download market combined with DVDs could work if the product was good enough. However, what I do not know at this stage is how this could work. For DVDs, I presume I could just start an Amazon page. Otherwise, for downloads, I just don't know. What do you do to sell product? How much do you pay?
As a note, this would attract a lot of flack so I would have to be extremely careful. Specifically, I would expect any website to get hacked to death and I would probably receive a few death threats. This is a controversial subject so I want a site with decent protection, not something I personally put up.
